Wanna run this by you guys

Got a lead on a 96 9c1, no motor or tranny. but it has lots of extras:

Hotchkis sway bars front and rear. Southwest speed upper front tube arms. Rear long upper and lower arms (some strage company name)set of hotchkis arms for the rear (2nd set)Hooker shorty headersFlowmaster exhaustDetroit True track posi w4.56 gearstuned 96 computerimpala ss rims.Body panels are ok, interior is junk. $1500. Stuff has around 5k miles on it. The rear arms are compressed because someone didn't put the sleeve in, but it all looks good. Worth the price? I'm doing some trading so i wouldn't have to to much out of pocket.

Discuss please!

Sounds like a lot of stuff I would love to have on my car... If you can do some trading to bring the price down that seems like a nice deal considering you would look at most of that price for the headers and exhaust alone new...

well, i figured thats all the stuff i want to buy anyway. Also has hotchkis springs, 1.5 inch drop. I don't know, i don't have the cash now, and he's not in any hurry. This has a very nice GOLEN 383 stroker in it. Car is a missle. hez putting it in a trans am.

I plan to use all the parts on my 95 impala ss, but what i don't use has been spoken for by a member already if i decide to sell anything. Thanks for the feedback guys, the wheels are already in motion.

Shoulda changed the SUBJECT line to "Look what you guys missed out on"

This also has QA1 shocks on it. Not sure what those are, I guess there good.

They make a 12 way rebound adjustable I think about $130pr& a compression/rebound adjustable (more $)These shocks are revalveable and rebuildable by QA1 Authorized Service CentersI'm running them in my 96 & like the fingertip adjustment Adjustable ON the car as long as your willing to hit the dirt.

Thanks for the info, we made the deal last night, i paid more than i wanted to, but it doesn't matter. If i was going to buy all that stuff it would cost me alot more. I can't believe the list of stuff he did to this car, the upper front arms have racing ball joints, the spindles have been augered out to fit them, i got the headers used and the brand new Hotchkis rear arms last night. never installed. The 456 gears with the Detroit tru-track, with new brakes and rotors, is the first thing i'm installing, its a 9c1 rear, but with all new bearings, seals, and such, i'm just going to run it in the impala ss for now. It has the X pipe Flowmaster cat backs, the cats are hollowed. He didn't baby it by any means, but still I'm excited. I've never had a car with great suspension, so for the money and the trade i'm glad i did it.

With all those parts selling or putting them on a car is a great deal. What kind of front control arms are they? I might go tubular someday

Well they just dropped off the car, Can wait to get started ripping her apart and get the stuff into my impala ss. I paid more than i wanted to, but i did get to trade some stuff off in the deal to save some money. I'll update you as i go along.
